An Anglo-Saxon/early medieval agricultural soil at land at 74 Wincheap, Canterbury was excavated in 2016 by Canterbury Archaeological Trust in advance of proposed development. The agricultural soil "varied in thickness from about 0.4m to 0.65m, becoming thicker to the north-east. Its upper surface was about 1m below modern ground level, though it was at a slightly lesser depth to the north-west. The deposit contained occasional rounded pebbles and sub-angular flint, rare peg-tile and oyster shell,
common charcoal and a few fragments of animal bone." (from the original report (1)).
Some of the layer may have been cut by a later phase of medieval and post-medieval pit cutting (TR 15 NW 2601).(1)
